Customer Ratings & Reviews

This Christmas present was a MAJOR hit for my guy. He’s incredibly picky with his tech and he LOVES this. He said Diablo 4 runs better on this than on his Xbox and has already gotten two more games.

ThexAlly is so much fun you wont be disappointed. Its amazing how much they packed in to a handheld. Only downside is somewhat short battery life depending on what youre playing. On turbo mode an hour goes by very quickly.

Absolutely love this, so convenient! As a Video director and gamer the ally has made my professional life and gaming life easier while traveling!

I knew when I got the Ally that I'd have a couple hours of setup time. Updates, ensuring I had all the necessary drivers, getting rid of Office, etc. That was fine. After day 1, I had almost two full days of being able to use it without incident. Then the updates started and it seems like they never. let. up. I keep it by the bed to play if I can't sleep. I turn it on...plug me in so I can flash the bios. Really? That's necessary? I try another night. Windows has updated. Restarting. I use it when I work out, plugged into a dock. 2 out of the 5 times I tried to use it, major updates that took 20 + minutes. It's freakin' annoying. Yes, I could probably turn down the frequency, but honestly, they ARE necessary updates by and large. But it would be nice if they slowed their roll on how often they come out. When you're not staring at an update screen, it works great. Plays Cyberpunk well on battery. I've had fun with it. But those updates...and the fact you have to be plugged in for them...it's JUST about a deal breaker.

It’s a good concept, I liked it till the left joystick wasn’t working properly. Then comes the updates like Microsoft updates and driver updates were so many in the time I had it. Plus I feel like it had to be perfected a bit more. And then comes the external GPU that is proprietary which is such an apple move, they could have just given an egpu option without the astronomical price. The battery life is not that great. As I said it’s a great concept but needs to be perfected. Might be better on the 2nd or 3rd gen.

The best portable gaming device EVERRRR!! I highly recommend this as a gift for any gamer in your life

My last handheld console was the PSP and I thought maybe handhelds are a thing of the past, until I got this bad boy. I did not realise what I was missing out on. I travel a lot, and let me tell you this has been a game changer for me.

Powerful little gaming device but pricey. For the price you could just go with a PlayStation but if you want portable this is great.

Perfect on the go companion, I use it to stream from my desktop at home and on the go for indie games and most triple A titles on lower settings. Even playing helldivers on the go!

One of the best windows 11 and Xbox on is really perfect

This thing is absolutely amazing. I have had no issuee. I know some people have though. Upgraded to a 2tb hard drive and got the xg mobile dock. This thing has literally replaced my consoles and desktop. It also goes everywhere with me.

Second system needs a lot of updates on everything. I think once it properly optimizes will be the best handheld. But I do like it so far oh and that battery life is horrible.

Well, during launch was just an absurd performance issues with the bios/firmware mainly due to version 319 that limited the FPS to 30 from 120. I had several times factory reset this 4-5 times taking over near 2 hours. This is because of how the performance was affected with the external display and using my own usbc dock, with either HDMI or DisplayPort. The offices Rod hdmi adapter and charger was sold out for a good several weeks. I had tried non asus brands and one asus brands and it has limited to 30fps. It was a headache. And there so much details and other occurrences that happened buuuut… there’s a new firmware update 322… and a new AMD software update, and armoury crate update … everything runs like a dream with the exception of prolly a bit Louder fan noise on turbo mode. But all is good.

The Asus Rog Ally is truly an impressive device. It runs AAA title games no issues. Like any new device there are some minor issues but nothing a few updates from asus cant fix.

Very smooth and nice screen. Good sticks and speakers are nice! Defiantly recommend the rog ally.

Powerful handheld, but I would rather just play on a monitor because of the screen size. Also, the battery life is not very good. Useful for gaming on the go.

The device works great and has amazing power and performance. Yes it definitely will take time to set up and learn to use but once you learn how and dowload any game its a breeze and you will be looking for more and more things to buy

This is an awesome piece of tech for both games and productivity. With windows 11 as the os it is capable of running the programs I need to do remote work and with the integrated controls it plays well too.

Use it frequently and holds up, gets a little too warm at times

Have had for over a week and have lived every min with it. Took a little bit to get started and games loaded but the ROG Ally is the perfect portable gaming system.
